Philomena Oakland

So my friend and I stumbled into this little neighborhood pizza spot, and honestly? I’m still thinking about that mushroom pizza. Like… how dare it be that good? Perfectly crispy crust, melty, earthy, cheesy goodness — basically a spiritual experience in pizza form. But the real MVP? Our waiter. This woman was a ... dream. She let us taste-test a bunch of drinks (because clearly we’re indecisive and she just got it) and helped us land on the perfect choices. We also ended up bonding over our pets because of course we did — she was so sweet, funny, and just one of those people who makes you feel like you’ve known them forever. Between the pizza, the vibe, and the A+ human interaction, this spot is officially my go-to. Already scheming about who I can drag here next. Highly recommend — don’t sleep on it. Read More

We’ve lived in the neighborhood for over a year and I can’t believe we hadn’t visited here sooner! Before moving to Oakland, the wife, cats, and I lived in Chicago - where there is all sorts of good pizza, not just deep dish. Anyway, Philomena is up to par and has delicious pies, as well as beer and kombucha on tap. ... For this visit, we got the Miss Piggy with gluten free crust, which was great! We also had the kombucha (mint guava) which is delicious, and their wings which I would recommend. The chicken isn’t over fried or battered - just good chicken with good sauce. Looking forward to coming back! Read More

Omgosh! I love Philomena so much that we decided to have our end of season celebration there. Everyone loved the food and the staff was super sweet and attentive. Rico was absolutely wonderful helping us hang banners and climbing up on a ladder to take a group photo. He really made us feel at home with his kind ... hospitality. And the food, let me just say, the pizzas were amazingly flavorful, chicken wings were delish - all three flavors, the brussel sprouts were a big hit both Calabrian chili and the Harvest edition with butternut squash and pecans with goat cheese, both salads were freshly made and we topped the Cesar with grilled chicken! It was just enough room for 42people. We absolutely enjoyed ourselves and will definitely be back! New fans of Philomena were made that night! Read More

I just ordered 15 pizza's very last minute for an event I was throwing. The folks at Philomena helped me figure out how much food to order and my food was ready on time. My guests were blown away by this delicious pizza. I love Philomena and now all my guests do too! (especially the Cali Apple and Pork Belly.... ... those pizza's went fast) Read More

BEST PIZZA. Seriously. Love this place because of the FLAVOR of the pie. Amazing quality ingredients, attentive owner that knows how to serve his customers. This could be the best pizza in town. Try it and I promise you will be back. The slice at lunch is HUGE. Totally bomb. Besides, there are always new ... things that are being cooked up. The herbs and spices they put on the pizza will change your idea of pizza. Sayn. Give it a shot. Read More

I love this place for its brunch pizzas! Our favorite is the blackberry bacon - ohmylanta! So delicious - I can eat a whole pie to myself. The lunch pizzas are delicious too - definitely get the mushroom in large if you have a big group. The seating isn’t too convenient - the stools are nice but too wide. I’m sure it ... gets packed during game days. They have plenty of TVs on all sides. Read More
